There seems to be no definition for arm here too. I literally meant definition as '#define asmlinkage' not the usage of it. For arm it is none so default defined in include/linux/linkage.h is used which is nothing special and just extern 'C' declaration to avoid garbled naming of C++ linkage, thats it.

I didn't see a definition of macro atleast in linux source I was browsing (3.2.0), Could you please point out to any one you have found.

it is defined even in much earlier release:

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ident?v=2.6.32;i=asmlinkage

for example, and every arch possible has a use of it.
